Headaches can have many causes or \u201ctriggers.\u201d These may include foods, environmental stimuli (noises, lights, stress, etc.) and\/or behaviors (insomnia, excessive exercise, blood sugar changes, etc.).<\/p>\n<p>About 5 percent of all headaches are warning signals caused by a serious physical problems. Whereas the other 95 percent\u00a0of headaches are primary headaches, such as tension, migraine, or cluster headaches. These types of headaches are not caused by another disease.\u00a0The headache itself is the primary concern.<\/p>\n<p>The greatest majority of primary headaches are associated with muscle tension in the neck. People today bend over computers, engage in more sedentary activities than they used to, and more hours are spent in one fixed position or posture. This can increase joint irritation and muscle tension in the neck, upper back and scalp, causing your head to ache.<\/p>\n<div style=\"clear:both; margin-top:0em; margin-bottom:1em;\"><div><style> .u01ffc7c9e216c617a915d0fc9ca2ec49 { padding:0px; margin: 0; background-color:#eaeaea; display: table-row; margin-bottom: 10px; text-decoration:none; } .u01ffc7c9e216c617a915d0fc9ca2ec49 .fp_col { display: table-cell; vertical-align: top; } .u01ffc7c9e216c617a915d0fc9ca2ec49 .related_thumbnail{ display: block; width: 150px; margin-right: 15px; } .u01ffc7c9e216c617a915d0fc9ca2ec49 .related_thumbnail img { display: block; max-width: 100%; height: auto; margin-bottom: 0; } .u01ffc7c9e216c617a915d0fc9ca2ec49:active, .u01ffc7c9e216c617a915d0fc9ca2ec49:hover { opacity: 1; transition: opacity 250ms; webkit-transition: opacity 250ms; text-decoration:none; } .u01ffc7c9e216c617a915d0fc9ca2ec49 { transition: background-color 250ms; webkit-transition: background-color 250ms; opacity: 1; transition: opacity 250ms; webkit-transition: opacity 250ms; } .u01ffc7c9e216c617a915d0fc9ca2ec49 .ctaText { font-weight:bold; font-size: 13px; color:#34495E; text-decoration:none; padding: 0; margin: 0; } .u01ffc7c9e216c617a915d0fc9ca2ec49 .postTitle { color:#000000; font-size: 16px; font-weight: bold; margin: 0; padding: 0; text-decoration:none; } .u01ffc7c9e216c617a915d0fc9ca2ec49 .postTitle{ text-decoration:none; } .u01ffc7c9e216c617a915d0fc9ca2ec49 .fp_col p.fp_short_dev{ margin-top: 0; line-height: 150%; font-size: 14px; margin-bottom: 0; padding-right: 10px; } .u01ffc7c9e216c617a915d0fc9ca2ec49:hover .postTitle { } @media screen and (max-width: 767px) { .u01ffc7c9e216c617a915d0fc9ca2ec49 .fp_col p.fp_short_dev{ display: none; } .u01ffc7c9e216c617a915d0fc9ca2ec49 .postTitle{ display: inline-block; line-height: 150%; padding-right: 10px; margin-top: 10px; } } <\/style><div class=\"u01ffc7c9e216c617a915d0fc9ca2ec49\"><div class=\"fp_col\"><a class=\"related_thumbnail\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/acc.vn\/en\/posture-tips-to-prevent-tech-neck-during-wfh\/\" ><img src=\"https:\/\/acc.vn\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2021\/06\/tech-neck-pain-relief-300x158.png\" \/><\/a><\/div><div class=\"fp_col\"><a target=\"_blank\" class=\"postTitle\" title=\"Posture Tips to Prevent 'Tech Neck' during WFH\" href=\"https:\/\/acc.vn\/en\/posture-tips-to-prevent-tech-neck-during-wfh\/\">Posture Tips to Prevent 'Tech Neck' during WFH<\/a><p class=\"fp_short_dev\">Working from home during the coronavirus outbreak definitely offers comfort, but with lack of proper office furniture, it can be tricky to maintain the right posture while working at home.

What can you do?<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>We suggests the following:<\/p>\n<p>If you spend a large amount of time in one fixed position, such as in front of a computer, on a sewing machine, typing or reading, take a break and stretch every 30 minutes to one hour. The stretches should take your head and neck through a comfortable range of motion.<\/p>\n<p>Low-impact exercise may help to relieve the pain associated with primary headaches. However, if you are prone to dull throbbing headaches, then avoid heavy exercise and engage in such activities as walking and low-impact aerobics.<\/p>\n<p>To avoid teeth clenching, the upper teeth should never touch the lowers except when swallowing. This results in stress at the temporomandibular joints (TMJ) \u2013 the two joints that connect your jaw to your skull \u2013 leading to TMJ irritation and a form of tension headaches.<\/p>\n<p>Drink at least eight 8-ounce glasses of water a day to help avoid dehydration, which can lead to headaches.<\/p>\n<p>There is also evidence that you should also avoid the following food \u201ctriggers\u201d:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Caffeine: <\/strong>Foods such as chocolate, coffee, sodas and cocoa contain high levels of the stimulant.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Sugar and Salt: <\/strong>Avoid foods with a high salt or sugar content. These foods may cause migraines, resulting in sensitivity to light, noise, or abrupt movements.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Alcohol: <\/strong>Avoid drinking alcoholic beverages. These drinks can dehydrate you and cause headache pain.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>In certain cases, headache sufferers may want to avoid not only caffeine, but also high-protein foods, dairy products and red meat.<\/p>\n<h2><span id=\"4_How_can_Chiropractic_care_help_those_with_headaches\"><strong>4.
